Basement Finishing our Dream Home!

Just purchased our house in Georgetown - 2700 square foot on 2 upper floors....basement hasn't been developed at all!

There is a bathroom roughed in....ideally we'd like a bathroom, wet bar, playroom, bedroom (likely to require expanding the basement window for a safe fire exit though!), and a small fitness room. Depending on the budget there is a cold cellar that would be a great Wine Cellar!

Basement in need of repair, finishing and completion

The previous owner made a mess of the basement. We have concrete floors, unfinished kiln wood stairs, plenty of holes in the existing drywall, cutout holes in the ceiling and other small problems. We want the basement fully repaired (the drywall), two walls put up in the laundry room, laminate installed with baseboard and trim, and perhaps one basic shelving unit built into the one wall. We want the basement ready to be professional painted by the time you are done with it. We also have a second job for our kitchen (which is a small one). We need: cabinets replaced, countertops changed and extended, sink changed, dishwasher installed. If you have these secondary skills we are interested. We have a new baby and need to have these changes completed as soon as possible. Thanks!

Basement renovation

My 147 year old house has a finished basement with ugly stucco walls and ceiling with an unusable wood fireplae (exterior stack removed). I am looking for new windows, insulation, pot lights. Basement is currently two rooms approximately 26' x 21 interupted by a staircase. One half has a drop tiled ceiling, the other half has the stucco ceiling. Basement is dry with carpet over cement floors. Looking for TV room, possibly extra bathroom, ideally with fireplace. High efficiency furnace recently installed but large vents still used, would like to have them replaced with smaller ones. Staircase needs replacing also.

Basement Renovation

Please see the attached word document with an approximate layout. The unfinished space (appx. 670 sq ft without utility room which will be enclosed only) is L-Shaped around an unexcavated area (garage). We will install a 2pc bath and walls around the utilities (furnace/hot water heater/water softener). To complete the utilities room, we will need the hot water heater moved. We also will install a simple wet bar (couple of cabinets with a sink and a bar fridge against a wall beside the washroom). We would like to discuss built-in units with the contractor, or at least design the space to accomodate one to be installed after the project is completed. There is existing insulation most way to floor level that we will have removed (to review quality of the walls) and replaced with new insulation. Sound proofing (Roxul safe and sound at a minimum) will be required for the bathroom/utility room and ceiling. Ceiling to be drywalled with recessed lighting. We will also have closets installed to provide storage in a mostly unusable area. We want the contractor to let us know what options we have for the location of the bathroom - the current rough in location, or whether it could be located near an existing drain (the alternate location would be where the closets are opposite the stairs in the attached word picture) from the 2 pc bath on the main floor). Laminate or reasonably priced cork would be the preference for flooring (except for tile in the bath and carpet on the stairs) all over dricore subflooring. For finishing, we would prefer wainscoting and crown moldings, but we may have this quoted as an option to do ourselves. The stairs are in the upper right of the picture but not to scale (couldn't draw them properly with the software). We show a wall at the bottom of the stairs that would require an intermediate landing on the stair with the bottom 3 steps moving left towards the cabinets. This would be an option level quote to help close off the area between the utility room. Building permit and all inspections are required and preferably to be coordinated by the contractor. Payment terms will be based on successful inspections. Please provide proof of insurance/WSIB coverage.

Basement Renovation

We have a 10 year old house (2350 square feet on two floors). We would like to get 3/4 of our basement finished in phases. We would like someone to come and do the framing. Then we have arranged to have the wiring done by a friend. Then we would like the ceiling and walls drywalled.

This is a job that could be done between other jobs.

The part of the basement we are finishing is a family room, bathroom and small office.

Please advise if you need additional information.

Thanks,

Alison

Finishing (part of) Our Basement

Long story short, my wife runs a home daycare, I was going to finish the basement, but we just had our 2nd child and I haven't been able to devote the time needed to the project before she takes kids back... We're just looking to finish the project to a point where it is safe for kids to run around... This job is time sensitive and would like it to be completed by Oct. 15th.

It's a 4 year old house, approx 800 sq ft basement, but the area that needs finishing is approx 600 sq ft. I'll work on areas that have been walled off another time (incl. the bathroom). I have prepped and framed 75% of the outer walls. That's about it. The job still requires additional framing, electrical, insulation, drywall, flooring, and some minor plumbing work.

I can purchase material if that helps the bottom line...

Finishing our basement renovation

We are almost done renovating our basement. It is being made into a legal 2 bedroom apartment. We have been doing a fair bit of the work ourselves but it is taking too long and we need it done as soon as possible. What is left is a lot of little things - finishing the trim with Dap, installing a vanity light and towel bar/toilet paper holder in the bathroom, putting up a decorative column around a support beam, hanging 3 closet doors, installing 3 closet shelves and rods, repairing a small (approx 3"x7") hole in the ceiling, along with a handle of other misc small jobs. We are looking for someone to either finish the entire job or even a portion of it.
